GRAEBEL first with uniform office relocations nationwide
MAY 29, 2007 – A national moving company has become the first to offer uniform office moves coast to coast.
GRAEBEL based in Aurora, CO has implemented what they’re calling “best practice methods” designed to minimize the risk of damage to office furniture, computers, and building surfaces in every major U.S. market. The company hopes to parlay their ability to offer uniform standards nationwide into a bigger slice of the national accounts business.
The move comes after six months of training resulting in every key GRAEBEL employee of every branch nationwide earning a Certified Mover diploma from the International Office Moving Institute (IOMI®).
“We’re committed to providing the same degree of consistent service regardless of which of our 52 locations customers contact,” said Chris Kline, GRAEBEL senior vice president.

Some GRAEBEL markets also offers The Boxless Move® to minimize nonproductive time companies spend packing and unpacking before and after relocating. Boxless Moves® need less packing materials and fewer truck loads, saving both landfill space and fuel.
Reusable Mat-A-®Door® panels minimize the risk of damage to office furniture and building surfaces and produce no disposable waste.
GRAEBEL protects building surfaces with a green-tech device called a Mat-A-Door® to minimize risk of damage and the negative impact that moves have on the environment.
The reusable, vinyl-covered door-size panels offer superior protection over cardboard, which most movers use and then discard after each job.
